Dear AuntMinnie Member,
The rise of combined RIS/PACS networks has made life easier for many radiology facilities, which are finding the high level of integration to be an advantage that promotes smooth workflow.
But the implementation of a RIS/PACS network can create additional issues for RIS and PACS administrators. For example, which application drives the work list at a facility? And what's the best way to ensure that both systems are well-integrated and operating smoothly?
We address these issues in our latest Online Symposium, featuring healthcare informatics expert Herman Oosterwijk, president of PACS education and consulting firm OTech of Aubrey, TX.
In a presentation that includes streaming audio and PowerPoint slides, Mr. Oosterwijk covers important issues like:
- Where data resides in a combined RIS/PACS installation, and how to access it
- How RIS and PACS applications exchange data
- Options for storage and information management
- The benefits of having one application versus the other drive a facility's work list
After the presentation, you'll have the option of downloading a white paper on the topic that you can use in planning for and maintaining your RIS/PACS installation.
